Aging policies, entitlements, and the deficit

Article Abstract:

The Clinton administration uses already mandated and earmarked funds to undertake systematic experimentation, using elders to help in solving the problems of long-term care of neglected, abandoned and abused children. However, there will not be enough money to expand entitlements and fund domestic programs on the scale desired to meet the needs. Mark incentives, psychological incentives, coercion and service credits are the strategies used to attract the interest of the elders.
